Here We Go....

Lucy has been especially sweet lately. Such a big girl. Helpful, good coping skills for the most part, excellent problem-solver, mostly rational behavior. I am proud of her and her big girl self these days.
However...with "Big Girlness" comes another item I am not real interested in experiencing: Attitude.
Sunday afternoon, I got my very first, "Whatever..." under her breath as she walked away from me.
Oh no she di 'int.
And so "time outs" begin for showing "attitude."
Isn't life interesting? Once they learn to wipe their booty and take care of themselves, suddenly they are too cool for school.
Ahhh...good times ahead with that one.
